As a digital nomad constantly on the move, I prioritize a practical wardrobe when traveling to hot countries. Due to limited suitcase space, I often choose mustard and yellow as core colors. Yellow is a vibrant shade that complements many other colors. Currently, I find myself drawn to the healing power of yellow. Dealing with menopause, I have discovered that the chrysanthemum flower, known as the yellow flower in Vietnam, offers numerous benefits. This herb aids in improving sleep, clearing brain fog, and reducing bloating. I firmly believe that embracing the color yellow will help me achieve success by 2023.

ZARA Yellow Dress
The ZARA bow dress is available in a variety of yellow and mustard shades. It is constructed with elastic material, making it comfortable to wear. To create a stylish ensemble, it can be paired with the Metiseko silk skirt, which is locally made in Hoi An. The dress can also double as a top, providing a solution for those with long torsos who often struggle with tops and t-shirts being too short and riding up.
Why Wear Mustard?
Mustard, a shade of yellow, closely resembles the color of culinary mustard and flax. This color is achieved through the use of turmeric, while mustard seeds themselves appear brown. Interestingly, the English language has mistakenly attributed the name “mustard” to the wrong spice since the 1840s.
During my drives in luxury cars like the Bentley Continental GTC Speed Convertible, I often donned clothing in the color mustard. Surprisingly, my designer insisted that my leather jacket, made in Tuscany, was actually yellow. As I traveled through the Cotswold region, known for its villages adorned with golden-colored stones, such as Chipping Campden and Broadwater, I continued to refer to the hue as mustard. In essence, we can conclude that mustard and yellow are essentially interchangeable terms.
I began to fall in love with everything mustard and yellow for the simple reason many people are afraid to wear it. The color mustard has a rich history in fashion, particularly in Venice in 2021. It is a popular choice in countries with abundant sunshine, such as Italy and South East Asia. However, many people struggle with finding the right way to incorporate this color into their outfits.

Yellow For Travel
The reason I am deeply drawn to the color yellow lately is because of its healing properties. Currently, I am exploring Hoi An, a one-of-a-kind town in Vietnam known for its Japanese-inspired architecture. Here, the prominent use of yellow paint on walls and buildings creates a unique and vibrant atmosphere. As I wander through the local boutiques, I notice that they predominantly use cotton and Vietnamese silk in their textiles. Many tourists are attracted to the exquisite embroidery silk and fabrics produced in Vietnam, often opting to have custom-made items to bring back to Europe, Canada, and Australia.
In Hoi An I also wore my bespoke embroidery denim Prada jeans I had made for my car reviews. Yellow is a colour that teams well with blue, pink, red and gold. People are afraid to wear yellow as it’s so very bright and attention-seeking. But it is a colour easy to wear in the tropics whilst travelling.
How To Travel With Yellow
If you have no idea what yellow goes with the following images of my street style here in Hoi An should inspire you to embrace yellow or mustard.
Hoi An Is An Instagram Gem
Hoi An is renowned for its vibrant lanterns, offering a variety of colors to admire. When purchasing fruit juice, one can find yellow pineapples, mangoes, and other fruits that serve as inspiration for incorporating yellow as a prominent color in travel. Additionally, the color yellow complements green beautifully, known in Asia as Celadon, a pale blue-green shade named after a type of Chinese ceramic.
Celadon is both a color and a glaze that was developed and refined during the 10th and 11th centuries. Celadon, the colour, has undertones of grey and jade.

As you can see a yellow backpack goes a long way when touring the streets of Asia. It is a unisex colour that works well with grey and black travel wear.
